英語筆譯實(shí)務(wù)-3級(jí)配套訓(xùn)練-第十五單元--漢譯英(二)21世紀(jì)科技突破(共4頁(yè))

1、精選優(yōu)質(zhì)文檔-傾情為你奉上英語筆譯實(shí)務(wù) 3級(jí)配套訓(xùn)練 第十五單元 漢譯英（二）21世紀(jì)科技突破21世紀(jì)我們將活得更長(zhǎng)（可能120歲）。如果說通常的衰老過程主要是我們細(xì)胞內(nèi)的一場(chǎng)激烈而不可見的競(jìng)賽的話（一場(chǎng)對(duì)我們的脫氧核糖酸進(jìn)行破壞同我們體內(nèi)的細(xì)胞對(duì)被破壞的組織進(jìn)行修復(fù)的競(jìng)賽），那么21世紀(jì)遺傳醫(yī)學(xué)的巨大成就會(huì)使我們能夠控制、甚至逆轉(zhuǎn)這一過程。但是在我們促使科學(xué)家再做得更多一些之前，不妨想一想：我們確實(shí)想要生活在一個(gè)沒有人衰老，很少有孩子出生（因?yàn)榈厍蛑荒艹惺苣敲炊嗟娜耍┑氖澜缟蠁?？新奇的主意從何而來？多活的那些年我們?cè)撟鲂┦裁茨?？我們將“管理”地球。下一個(gè)世紀(jì)，我們將不再談?wù)撎鞖?，而是主要地?/p>

8、he most complex human system we know (Of all the human systems it is the most complicated). It contains about 100 billion neurons (roughly the number of stars in the Milky Way), each connected to as many as 1,000 others.

Early in the 21st century, we will use advanced forms of magnetic resonance imaging to produce detailed maps of the neurons in operation (to map / plot / draw in detail the operation of the neurons). We will be able to say with certainty which ones are working when you read a word, when you say a word, when you think about a work, and
